When Communism Disappeared As a Threat Why did They Make Muslims The Threat?

Question

Do the Government think we need to be threatened to keep us on our toes? How come Muslims started to be the threat once the USSR broke up? It's was has if they had to maintain the threat continuity.

Answer 1

You know, I wonder how many people actually pay attention to history. It's been this way since the beginning of time. Humans are just horrible. Nobody made the Muslims the threat, they made themselves the threat. Sorry, but we didn't just make a movie about 9/11. It really happened. People really died. Do you watch the news? Very few countries in the world aren't fighting some kind of war. We don't have to make up any kind of controversy.

Answer 2

They did not Make Muslims The Threat
Islam became a threat after the Iranian rewvolution
Now they did not responsible if Saddam invaded kuwait
Or Bin Laden did 9/11

Answer 3

Well you have clearly demonstrated how ill-informed you are concerning world politics. What makes you think that Communism disappeared?

Please, tell us all the exact date it disappeared.

Wake up.....there are currently 5 COMMUNISTS countries still in the world. Perhaps you have heard of 1 or 2....

People's Republic of China
Republic of Cuba
Lao People's Democratic Republic (Laos)
Socialist Republic of Vietnam
Democratic People's Republic of Korea (N. Korea)

And as for "making Muslims" a threat. I think they did that on their own.

Perhaps you recall the attack on the WTC in 1992?
Or maybe the one on 9/11?
Maybe the assassination team sent by Saddam (President of a Muslim country...even though he didn't practice his religion) to murder George Bush, Sr.?

Sure it was great that the USSR fell and communism in this former country ended after 70 years. But don't forget that there are still hard line communists in the new Russia and they have candidates on the ballot for every election.

Disappeared...hardly.

And you are truly uninformed if believe that this country has not been under threat since December 7th, 1941. The cold war started almost immediately after WWII end.

Answer 4

Muslims made themselves the threat by committng 9/11 and 7/7 and the Madrid bombings and the recent terrorism plots.

Answer 5

Extremest Muslims have been a threat for years. With the USSR breaking up, they became number 1.

Have you ever watched the movie Back to the Future? It was Muslim terrorists that the Doc got the nuclear material from.

Answer 6

I think you'll find that there was no common enemy since USSR until 9/11 happened and bin laden started his war against the western world in the name of islam...quite simple

Answer 7

When the smoke blows away and the view is clear then more smoke has to be generated to cover the real cause.
The masses are kept onside to pay for the pensions of the controllers.
Without them the State will fall apart and we will have anarchy.
Its a catch 22 situation that no one has found an answer to.

Answer 8

Some of this is scare mongering but the middle east is a dangerous threat to the west it just the USSR had taken the attention from this fact.

Answer 9

In the UK Muslim extremest are a small threat, its not like we're lived in Israeli or Palestine where the risk of you been killed greatly rises.

Answer 10

Hummmmm, lets think about that for 1/2 second!

Because Muslims have said that they intend to destroy Israel?

Because Muslims have said that if you don't convert to Islam, your head will be sawed off?

Because Muslims believe that Islam is destined to control the world?

Because Muslims have said that America will be destroyed?

I say Muslims are a threat to world peace because everywhere Islam exists, it's borders are bloody and it's neighbors are under attack. I say Muslims are a threat to world peace because they say so themselves.
